I wanted to know whether the map will be displayed in the central 7inch infotainment system( dash) if i don't have the navigation package? or is it just displayed in the MMI screen via android auto or car play?

You must be talking about the driver information system between the rev counter and the speedo. Both displays are 7" if you don't get the navigation package. No the maps via AA or CarPlay are not displayed on the driver information system, only the MMI center screen. AA can only project to a single display. CarPlay technically since iOS 10 can project some information such as turn directions to a second display, but Audi doesn't support that.

I actually have the same question as OP, i.e. whether Premium Plus without any options/packages supports Navigation on the center console screen (not the one part of the instrument cluster) ?

- A week ago I test drove an S4 which did not have the navigation package part of that build and pressing the Navigation button just displayed an error on the screen that "Navigation is not supported". The dealer said I had to order the Navigation package.
- The list of standard features listed on the Audi website for S4 also does not indicate Navigation and says 7-inch screen in the standard for the center console.
- Although, the information here seems to indicate that the standard hardware installed on the Premium Plus is a 8.3-in center screen with navigation support. May be I'm misreading this page?

Could someone please clarify?

Premium Plus doesn't have built-in navigation standard and comes with a 7 inch center display, unless you order the Navigation package, which adds the Virtual Cockpit, upgrades the center display to 8.3 inch and adds Navigation. Prestige comes with the Navigation package standard. It appears that link has incorrect information. Here's what's standard in the Premium Plus as far as Infotainment and Technology is concerned.

Prestige gives you Navigation, Virtual Cockpit, HUD and Acoustic Glass (front only).

I think top view camera, configurable LED interior lighting are also exclusive standard features in Prestige and not part of the Nav package in Premium+. The Driver Assistance Package is also an exclusive package to Prestige.

Based on the standard features listed on the website, I see the following differences:

Infotainment Technology
Premium Plus:
- Parking system plus with rear view camera (front and rear acoustic sensors)

Prestige:
- MMI® navigation plus
- MMI® touch with handwriting-recognition technology
- Audi virtual cockpit (12.3" LCD fully digital instrument cluster and two visual modes: Classic and Infotainment)
- 8.3" MMI® center infotainment/navigation display
- INRIX XD® Traffic
- Parking system plus with top view camera system
- Head-up display with navigation and assistance systems information

Interior

Premium Plus:
- Ambient LED interior lighting package

Prestige:
- Acoustic front side glass
- Ambient LED interior lighting plus package

Double paned front driver and passenger windows - really cuts down on outside road and wind noise
